The spring season is upon us, and with it a fresh spirit. For most people (including me), spring brings renewed motivation to get out and explore, especially after a long winter. Here’s a great collection of spring bucket list ideas for kids, families, and couples to try this year.
I find that if I don’t make a list of things I want to do each season slips away from me. And while you don’t need to do everything on these spring bucket lists, they can serve as a reminder for fun activities to throw into your spring schedule.
These are just ideas for spring activities, you can mix and match any you like to create your own spring bucket list! Or save your list from year to year until you’re able to check off each item.
Spring Bucket List Ideas for Kids
These will depend on the age, but most should be appropriate for toddlers, preschoolers, and school aged kids. Grab this spring bucket list and use it to make some childhood memories your kids will keep for the rest of their life!
I’m not a big fan of childhood being a checklist and these are purely for fun and inspiration. As a parent, I know how stressful making every day perfect can be. Relax, have fun, and do what works best for your family.
I made sure to add plenty of indoor ideas too in case the weather is still cool or your spring includes a lot of rainy days.
